This is exactly the kind of discussion around veganism I'd love to see more. Too often it gets incorrectly reduced into an awfully restrictive diet.
In some ways my mostly vegan (sometimes vegetarian) diet is more varied than it was before. The flavour and prominence of meat was doing a lot of the heavy lifting in most meals. When you 'lose' that, you soon find better ways to flavour the plant side of things and that opens a lot of culinary doors.
It only feels restrictive because most restaurants cater to meat eaters first and foremost. That, and because e.g. ready meals are 'for some reason' filled with unnecessary meat products (some of the other comments touch on what those reasons might be).
I'm glad!
